Jose Mourinho is "not confident" that David de Gea will sign a new contract with Manchester United, but he still hopes the goalkeeper will commit his future to the club.
Gea's current Old Trafford deal expires this summer, though it contains a one-year extension clause that can be triggered by the club.
United opened negotiations with the United States of America and the United States.
The club would then be faced with a cashing in on Gea or lose it on a free transfer in 2020.
Reports have suggested that the situation is more serious than that of Mourinho later that it is not certain the 27-year-old will sign.
"I'm not confident," he told Sky Sports. "But I'm not sure how do you say the opposite of that, I'm not worried I'm not finding the word in English, but let's see what happens.
"Only the club, David and his people can answer that." "How is it that knows how good he is, how important is Manchester United, if the club wants to be better, it would be be very important to keep David. "
De Gea is one of 10 United States whose contracts expires in June 2019, with the likes of Phil Jones, Chris Smalling and Antonio Valencia also at risk of leaving for nothing.
The club remains in negotiations with Anthony Martial who, like De Gea, has a one-year extension clause.
Mourinho also hit out at several national associations for failing to release injured Manchester United players in the recent international break. Mourinho is likely to be without Alexis Sanchez, Marouane Fellaini, Diogo Dalot and Scott McTominay for United's meeting with Everton tomorrow.
All four players scored last Saturday at Chelsea and Tuesday's Champions League defeated against Juventus.

The United manager said this left in a position where they had no idea what is going on.
"We play against Newcastle and we go to the national team period in a good situation and then after two weeks we lost Dalot in Portugal, Fellaini in Belgium, Alexis with Chile, we lost who else? McTominay with Scotland.
"Some of them the national teams, they were very early, but they would not have kept the players.
"We did not know the size and nature of the injuries when we arrived two days before Chelsea, we have no idea what is going on."
Sanchez and Fellaini are carrying problems, while McTominay suffered a minor knee injury and Dalot picked up a knock.
Mourinho has also been forced to do so with Jesse Lingard, who has made a claim for the World Cup. (© Independent News Service)
